Hi Wendol,

What does your network look like? Are you playing from a private residence, or a university?

Also,

You know, I don't actually know how to get support in the game. Probably because I have the development team on speed dial. I'll find out tomorrow and get back to you, but I just wanted to confirm where you were having problems getting a response from our support team.

Really? Has anyone else seen this behavior?

We intend to put it in, but a number of similar RP features were deferred to after launch. As we start building on the game, we'll start slipping features like this in.

Hi Superium,

I'm sorry you're having trouble with that mission, but there are lots of good suggestions in this thread for how to get through it. We do test all of our missions, and sometimes we do make mistakes in difficulty. But it's often just a case of asking for advice, and finding out other ways to approach it, much like playing an old text adventure game: much better with two!!

Let us know if you're still having troubles, and post before you get too frustrated.

I got the age thing from the new math joke. I've been reading through the complete Peanuts series in which it appeared prominently. And Gasoline Alley, which I'm now addicted to!

We test as much as possible with a combination of beta, stress testing, automated stress testing, and then open beta. But nothing perfectly simulates the actual release of the game. We are constantly working to improve it, and have the first update going to the testbed server this week.

Let me know what it says for FPS.

Much love and lolz...

I saw what you did there.

Btw, there's a place for voting in the UC forums.

Hi guys,

Can you please take your router out of the link and see if you still have the problem? Also, ghettochilde, I believe we changed the ports we use for UDP between the beta and release to make them a little more mainstream. Is it possible that you haven't opened the new ports on your router?
